The blue fireball, carrying tremendous power, rushed forward irresistibly.
Zhao Shuning clasped her hands to form a circle. When the fireball was approaching infinitely, an ice - blue shield suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Forming spiritual energy into a tangible object?"
"The thing in front of that little girl is the Ice - Blue Shield!"
"How can a little girl who has just stepped into the rank of a first - level spiritual herbalist know such a complex move?"
When the fireball hit the ice shield, Zhao Shuning felt a huge impact. Her body kept retreating under the impact.
The ice - blue flames emitted by the fireball were already exerting pressure on Zhao Shuning's spiritual power.
The pain stimulated Zhao Shuning's young body. Dense beads of sweat began to ooze from her forehead. The pair of shoes on her feet were also about to fall apart due to the continuous friction with the ground.
"Sure enough, although this little girl is extremely talented, she is still a bit too reckless. Zhao Xue is a genuine second - level spiritual herbalist. How can she withstand his attack? This is just the first move, and she is already in such a sorry state."
"What a pity!"
A lot of noisy voices came whistling into Zhao Shuning's ears.
The pain on her body, the blood beads oozing from her palms, and the burning pain on the soles of her feet all reminded her that she had reached the limit of what her body could bear.
Although it was so painful, Zhao Shuning felt extremely exhilarated.
She was still afraid that Zhao Xue would show mercy to her because she was a granddaughter of the Zhao family.
It seemed that the goading tactic just now had really worked.
Zhao Xue was now exerting all his strength.
Zhao Shuning slowly closed her eyes. She had been a first - level spiritual herbalist for half a year and had never found an opportunity to break through. This time, she could use Zhao Xue's power to break through her limits and be promoted to the second level all at once!
Under everyone's gaze, Zhao Shuning's body was slowly wrapped in a layer of pale blue light, and then her body slowly rose into the air and actually floated in mid - air.
Everyone exclaimed, "What is she doing!"
Suddenly, Zhao Shuning suddenly clenched her hands tightly. The Ice - Blue Shield in front of her instantly shattered, and the fireball rushed violently towards her body!
"Don't!"
"Shuning!"
"Xiaoning'er!"
For a moment, several members of the Zhao family, including Old Zhao, were so excited that they tried to jump onto the high platform. If the fireball hit the little girl, she would lose half of her life.
"Bang!"
A dazzling light came from mid - air. It was extremely eye - catching. Everyone quickly covered their eyes. After a few seconds, when they opened their eyes again, they were completely stunned by what they saw.
In mid - air, the little girl was wearing a goose - yellow dress, looking as vibrant as a winter jasmine. Her smiling eyes still carried a childish look. At this moment, a gentle breeze blew, and her clothes were already a bit torn, but it highlighted her calmness in the face of danger.
Now, Zhao Shuning actually made everyone present feel a sense of oppression.
She stretched out her finger and met the ice - blue fireball.
"Whoosh—"
The little girl took a long breath. She had succeeded!
When the fireball touched her finger, it became extremely obedient. Then, Zhao Shuning gave a charming smile and turned her finger. The huge ice - blue fireball actually turned into dozens of small blue fireballs and attacked Zhao Xue.
"Frost Condensation Finger—"
Old Zhao stared at the actions of the little figure in mid - air. After a long time, he finally uttered these three words.
"Frost Condensation Finger! It's impossible! Shuning is only a first - level spiritual herbalist!"
"Could it be?"
At this time, Zhao Zheng was so surprised that he turned his head and looked at Old Zhao, who was deep in thought.
The old man nodded. "The younger generation is really formidable. The future of our Zhao family is promising!"
Using the opponent's offensive as her own strength, such courage and boldness were something that even Old Zhao had never dared to try, but this little girl had actually done it.
"Huai'er, what did Shuning just do?"
Lin Min'er didn't understand these things and could only ask Zhao Huai beside her.
"Mother, Xiaoning'er used Uncle Er's attack to break through the confinement of a first - level spiritual herbalist. Now, Xiaoning'er has been officially promoted to the second level."
The second level? How was this possible?
Didn't Brother Zheng say that it would take at least a few years of cultivation to be promoted to the next level of spiritual herbalist each time? How could Shuning be easily promoted in such a short time? It was impossible!
Zhao Huai just smiled but said nothing. If he guessed correctly, from the very beginning, Xiaoning'er had hidden her true spiritual power.
